Training
At the FFF Academy Los Angeles foot camps, the training methodology is based on development principles created by the French Football Federation, one of the most respected federations in the world when it comes to youth player development.
This methodology was designed by Jean-Claude Lafargue, former Director of INF Clairefontaine, the legendary training center that produced champions like Kylian Mbappรฉ and Thierry Henry.
Itโs an approach that combines technical training, individual development, and tactical awareness.
Each session is tailored to the age, skill level, and pace of progression of the players.
At the FFF Academy Los Angeles camps, each day is structured around four key components:
-
Technical training
-
Small-sided games
-
Workshops and athlete-focused activities
- Matches and scrimmages
Through these four training blocks, players are fully immersed in the French-style player development model, helping them grow into well-rounded athletes.
The program also places strong emphasis on values โ both athletic and personal โ because while being a good player matters, being a good person matters even more.
This dual commitment is at the heart of everything we do at the FFF Academy Los Angeles camps.
Coaches and coaching method
The FFF Academy Los Angeles methodology is at the heart of the project and is led by Jean-Claude Lafargue, former Director of INF Clairefontaine.
The Director of the Los Angeles academy has been personally trained in this methodology and, along with his team of coaches, will pass on its principles and values in every session.
To ensure optimal quality, there will be one coach for every 10 children.
All coaches hold the highest-level coaching licenses and have been fully trained in the FFF Academy methodology.
Your children will be in excellent hands for a week of high-performance training in one of the most exciting cities in the United States
